About me

Summary
 
I am an applied mathematician working in parallel scientific computing. One of my main interests is the development of numerical algorithms and efficient software components for the parallel solution of partial differential equations on current supercomputers. I am a core developer of DUNE (http://www.dune-project.org), a parallel C++ framework for the solution of partial differential equations.
 
Recent achievements include:
- Developed a robust and efficient algebraic multigrid (AMG) solver for discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods applied to partial differential equations with jumping coefficients.
- Developed a massively parallel, scalable algebraic multigrid solver for partial differential equations with jumping coefficients
- Developed a parallel iterative solver library with preconditioned Krylov methods for systems of partial differential equations
